10X chromium X Single Cell
The Chromium X Series is the next generation of instrumentation,
purposefully designed to enable high-throughput experiments.
Compared to the Chromium Controller, the Chromium X Series has:
• Similar performance as assessed by multiplet rates, library complexity,
read mapping rates, and cell clustering.
• Ability to run an assay with low throughput (LT) or high throughput (HT).
• Low throughput: 100–1,000 cells per channel
• High throughput: 2,000–20,000 cells per channel
2,000–60,000 cells per channel with CellPlex
• Standard assay: 500-10,000 cells per channel
500-30,000 cells per channel with CellPlex
